TTC - Clomid Part 3

[stac14]

Follow on from the old thread for people trying to conceive using fertility treatments.

hey job I was taking epo for cm and it did seem to work also you can try green tea or grapefruit juice all meant to be really effective.

Soz to hear about dps relative paddington its hard to know what to do in this situation, why the name change hun?

hows everyone else? my sister is stressing me out big time, still no af but to scared to test again xxx

hey stac i may well go back to it but just had a paranoid thoughtthoughtthought i may be recognised on a another thread. How late are ya hun? Siblings do have innate ability to drive their fellow sibling crazy im afraid hun hope your ok x x

Hi Stac - know I'm, afew days late but my dh was aking the sanatogen multi pack thats for preconception for both mum & dad! Was pink & silver but think thatthey've changed the pack.

I'm also feeling ya with the too scared to test!!! On day 29 (I know only 1 day late) but soooo paranoid that its gonna be negative. Then when I think about it I get the niggles that you get before you come on. Other than being tired, headaches & nausea - no really symptoms that would confirm anythig either way. Could all be stress (family & Work).

Jo - welcome. Thats sad news. My best friend had a stillborn nearly 2 years ago due to the cord being around his neck. She now has a lovely healthy little girl. Also I can't comment too much as I've not even been able to conceive yet!!!

Clur - Big hug on the news! Know the feeling all too well. Baby talk at lunch time is getting a bit on my nerves too!

Fingers crossed & baby dust to all *

hi fairy, i know what you mean about the baby talk, it gets a bit much sometimes doesn't it? I also understand how nervous you're feeling about testing at the moment, I always put it off to prolong the "i might be" feeling. Well I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you and wish you lots of luck, have a great hols. I'm on CD 11 and waiting for DH to get home from work!!

hey thislittle I am about a week late but not too sure of cycles as af lasted about 8 or 9 days, feel a bit crampy today so think its on its away.

fairygodmother I am going to get the sanatogen at the weekend, I have only been taking the folic acid but will take this instead.

clure the baby talk is a nightmare, I was with my cousin last week and thier baby is only 7 weeks old so cute but just added to the broodiness, but was nice to have a cuddle lol

hows the rest of you girls? xxx

hey stac dp and i take those have had a crap day and nothing to make it better no chocolate no wine boo! Hope all are well x x

Hi girls,

Now day 30!!!! paranoia seriously setting in! Gonna hold out till sat before testing. I'm also feeling a bit niggly. Just don't really have symptoms for being preg or coming on!!!!!! Headaches, tiredness & nausea could be stress & tired. Boobs not hurting like they normally do when I'm coming on either!!! (far to many exclamation marks).

I just don't know what to do!

Baby dust to all

Fairy good to hold out a couple more days, its nerve racking, however if you do happen to get a negative then repeat test in a couple more days as sometimes its too early get a positive. I'm keeping my fingers well and truly crossed for you

stac - have you tested yet? hoping you're well

Day 12 for me, this cycle I am going to continue to BD up till later in my cycle as I think last month (given my LONG cycles I think if I did ov then it was nearly 2 weeks after day 14)

Can anyone answer this daft question - if you BD in the evening would you go swimming the following morning? Does chlorine have an adverse effect? Sorry if this sounds silly!!

hi everyone else x

hey clure not sure about the swimming thing but I assume it would be fine as what went up will have came back down by morning (sorry tmi lol) I havent tested again yet too scared maybe pluck up the courage by tomorrow, just worried its the pcos making me irregular again.

thislittle if af comes then I am defo having wine this weekend been a long week, how you feeling now?
xxxx

stac - wine is usually my choice of comfort for a bfn or af! I know what you mean about being irregular it really throws a spanner in the works about when to test. Fingers crossed for you and Fairygodmother too.
Didn't go swimming in the end (need to do some swim training to sort out my dire technique during this summers triathlons) I did a spin session instead, was a bit tired from yesterday as did a 12k run.
Looking forward to half term and spending time with my DD who is SO tired now she's full time at school
Have a smashing weekend all x

Hi all,

Clure I caved this morning & got a bfn!!!!!!

My northern friend has also told me it might be too early to test.

My face has broken out in spots!!!!

Going to use this half term to completely chill out & get some positive news (hopefully) but if af comes than I want to be chilled for next cycle to really make it happen!

Have a good weekend all!!!!

Baby dust *
p.s. Clure I think swimming would be ok!!!

Fairy - pants about bfn, wait a few days and test again. We need some good news! Have a relaxing half term x

hey ladies
how are you all? still no af here tested again bfn will wait a few more days then phone cons see what he suggests. There was some good news on the other thread I use one of the ladies got bfp. Hope your all well xoxoxox

Hi Stac,

How many days late is that now? I'm now 4 days & still no af!!!!

Again no symptoms as such!

Hope everyone's had a good weekend

baby dust *

Baby dust

hi all any news? Well this moment forth i am being extra good no booze on. Am on roughly cd33 natural cycle and nothing has happened. Boo. Trying not to be down about it. How was monday for everyone treated you well? Fairy and stac- good luck X x

hi all yes good luck to stac, fairy and thislittlesisterlola with the testing. I too am on no alcohol and BD everyother day, tis knackering!!
hope the rest of you all are well xxxx

Still nothing in the arrival of af...shall be testing tomorrow morning I think!

Finger crossed!!!!

Bd-ing every day is bloody knackering! And do you know what makes it worse? When a friend says you are trying too hard!!!! How the bloody hell can you???

Having never been preg before are you supposed to feel any diff?

Baby dust to all *

Fairy I didn't know I was pg last time round until I did the test (and I kept putting that bit off too incase it was a negative again!) You never know.... will be thinking of you tomorrow

Hey ladies any news on the testing front? I am going to test again today but I am begining to think there is no point lol

I know what you mean about bding everyday, it can become a bit of a chore, so dp and I try to go for it when we feel like it rather than for routine, not always easy especially at oving time (since i dont know when that is we tend to be very regular for about 2 weeks lol)
fairy i didnt feel any different until I actually found out I was pg then I got as sick as a dog

hows everyone else? xxx

well ladies its a bfn so will give it a week and see if af arrives if not i will start provera then its back to the clomid xxx

hi all well no news my end other than dp dreaming i was pg now nagging me to test and me feeling utterly exhausted and anything i eat does taste as good as it should- weird. At work atm hate it boo who ever said half term was a holiday! Stac dont be too disheartened the af lady has not sung yet! Fairy i am quite confident i wouldnt know if i was pg as my body likes trickery. clure- im giving it 3 months of being extra good and see if it happens. Minus xmas day- obv. Baby dust to all x x

hi all.

Can someone answer a quick quetion about Clomid and boobs. Mine are throbbing a lot and I am not sure if this is just a side effect of Clomid? I am on CD 25 at the moment.

Hi all, haven't been on for a while, as I'm trying to forget that we're ttc. Neither of us are drinking, and dh seems to think he's doing me a huge favour by it, pouting all the while. He's just played squash and then come straight home, because he didn't want to go to the pub with his mate and not drink - what about the company?! So he's in a miserable, blaming mood, and I'm hiding in the bedroom.

Stac, hope to hear some good news from you. Hope you're all well.
